Michelle Obama Has No Patience for Hecklers

Two weeks ago, President Obama was heckled by anti-war protester Medea Benjamin during a speech about drones and national security.

At the end of last week, after a long silence, the video's owner reached out to the intermediary we have been dealing with. He told him the video is "gone."
